Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the cantonal appellate court arbitrarily assessed the evidence and violated in dubio pro reo by doubting the alleged threat to the bailiff.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. The prosecution did not show that the appellate court's factual findings were arbitrary; given language difficulties and the circumstances, the court could find serious doubt about the exact words spoken.
Extrahierte Begründung
Federal review was limited to arbitrariness. The prosecution merely contrasted its own view of the evidence. The appellate court's interpretation that the officials may have misunderstood the defendant was not untenable, especially because one official initially did not understand him and the defendant's German skills were limited.
